Porn will require a totally unique model different from what works in mainstream. The reason being the streaming from big tube sites. Comparing mainstream ideas to porn is apples and oranges.
If an Alexa top 20 website was streaming Louis C.K's video, his method wouldn't work at all. Even the most honest person wouldn't finish watching a free version of his video then go buy the paid version, especially if when they searched for it, the free streaming version was number one in all the search engines.
If porn wasn't streaming in nearly 10 of the Alexa top 100 websites, some of the things you guys are talking about might work. But porn will require something totally different that has yet to be invented or thought of.
I'm NOT defending the current porn business model as it is obviously flawed, I'm just saying that mainstream ideas such as the one by Louis CK don't really compare.
Same with Hollywood movies, if several Alexa top 20 websites were streaming full television shows and movies, Netflix would go out of business in a few weeks.
